Agreed. I hope they reconsider adding it back in.
I got the email and survey as well, but did not get selected. Selection is probably random chance, but I wonder if

The survey was mostly a screening process to make sure you didn't have any affiliation to Disney and to see if you fit a certain demographic. I think it asked about how many children you have and how many trips you've done. I remember they asked a short answer question about describing your bucket list trip.
